COVID-19 cases grow 10x every 10 days.

India lost 6% of her population in the Spanish flu of 1918. COVID-19 is growing rapidly today- it’s highly transmissible (R0 3-5), has a high hospitalisation rate (20%), a high ICU admission rate (6-10%). The human & economic cost of such exponential growth will overwhelm our system very quickly.

But it is containable, if fought at the District level.

Implemented well, it is a 5-7 week solution. Done incorrectly, it can drag on for months & cause thousands of deaths. The District is the most effective administrative unit to fight the virus and the key steps to stop the outbreak are:
